The Signed Crowoods have landed!
They're here again !! 
We have 40 of them, delivered personally to BeoWorld HQ by the joint author Nick Jarman and his lovely wife Marion last Saturday. 
Without a shadow of a doubt this is THE most comprehensive book about collecting Bang & Olufsen ever written. Painstakingly compiled by Tim and Nick Jarman (the brothers behind the brilliant 'Beocentral' website), this book offers a superb insight into all things B&O with honest, frank, accurate and in-depth reviews.
An absolute must for anyone with an interest in Bang & Olufsen - especially anyone interested in starting a serious collection. Signed personally by the both authors exclusively for BeoWorld.
Thanks to Nick and Tim securing a wholesale price for us, the small profit BeoWorld makes after postage will be supporting the site and helping pay for the smooth running of our favourite place to be on the internet. Bonus!
The books are now available to order in the Gift Shop with FREE worldwide shipping included.

Mine came at a reduced price too. However the [original flyleaf] retail price was £25, so it's clearly worth paying the Beoworld price to get a signed copy.

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
Not sure what the " " is for?!
Your copy was just under £20, and if we halve the shipping it adds £5. That's £25.
The signed copy is £28.50, £3.50 more - and it supports BeoWorld!
Ebay ones (unsigned) are £25.41-£25.62 with free UK shipping - not worldwide.
I thought i'd priced them ok.. 
Sorry.

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
Some people ...
You've priced them very kindly, Lee.
The book's brilliant, and worth much more than BeoWorld is asking even without a signature. If I didn't already have two I'd order a signed one!

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
Free P&P makes them fairly priced to me given that they're signed and help a little towards the site :)

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
The Jarmans get them at a reduced price, but this is still more than some internet prices! Clearly neither Lee or the Jarmans can sell these at a loss.

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
Too bad I got mine last year already....
Might sell it though and get a signed copy... the price is VERY FAIR!
Thanks for offering this, Lee!

PS: The book is a MUST HAVE for B&O enthusiasts! Make yourself a nice present and get one. I bought mine for my wife who gave it to the kids so they had a nice birthday gift for me ;-)

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
Price is spot on.
In fact, I canceled my Amazon order and bought a signed copy during the first round!
Thx again!

Will your swim to Mauritius be sponsored Puncher?

Put it this way - if you were to sponsor me Thruppence a yard, you'd get change from a Ten bob note!

Re: The Signed Crowoods have landed!
But seriously, it's a great book, no matter what the price. I got one of the first Beoworld batch of signed copies while waiting for another from Amazon. It was a little cheaper on Amazon even then - but I had to wait months for that copy since it was backordered all the time!
